Mumbai, December 1, 2016: Reliance
Jio Infocomm Ltd. (“Jio”) announced today that it has crossed 50
million subscribers in just 83 days from commencement of services on 5
September 2016. The average rate of addition of 6 lakh subscribers per
day is the fastest achieved by any technology company in the world
including the likes of Facebook, WhatsApp and Skype.

Jio
is delighted that its comprehensive ecosystem has enabled millions of
Indians to add value to their daily lives through its offerings. Jio
continues to transform the industry paradigm by revolutionising the
customer journey from on-boarding to usage by offering services and
applications which have substantially enhanced customer experience.

Jio
has successfully rolled out eKYC across 2 lakh outlets in India,
thereby allowing activation of SIM to get completed in under 5 minutes.
More than 95% of the activations are being done in a paperless manner
through eKYC. The Company is in the process of doubling the network, to 4
lakh digitally enabled outlets by March 2017.

Jio customers
can benefit from the Mobile Number Portability facility such that they
can retain their existing number when they migrate to Jio. Jio has also
introduced Home Delivery of Jio SIMs, so that the enterprise and
high-end customers can get a Jio SIM home-delivered and activated in 5
minutes through eKYC. This feature is being progressively launched
across India through MyJio application and will be available in top 100
cities by 31st December 2016. Jio’s Data Strong Network

Jio
has built a data strong network for the internet from the ground up.
This has been demonstrated by the 52 million subscribers who have made
the most of Jio Digital Life services and on an average are using 25
times more data than the average Indian broadband user. On the whole,
Jio is not only delivering 4 times more data than all other Indian
telecom operators combined, but also much faster throughputs than any
other mobile network in India. Jio is a customer obsessed
organisation. The scale of operations has now offered Jio a good
opportunity to receive subscriber feedback about its network and
services. All the feedback is being addressed to ensure best-in-class
customer experience.

Jio Happy New Year Offer

On
this occasion, Jio also announced the launch of ‘Jio Happy New Year
Offer (“JNO”)’, which will be effective from 4 December 2016. All the
Jio subscribers will be entitled to certain special benefits under the
JNO, which shall comprise of Jio’s Data, Voice, Video and the full
bouquet of Jio applications and content, absolutely free, up to 31 March
2017. During this offer period, Jio and Jio customers, will be able to
continue the journey of co-creating and building the best network
experience together.

The benefits will be available to all
subscribers signing up for Jio services up to 3 March 2017. The existing
Jio Welcome Offer (“JWO’) users will continue to enjoy the unlimited
benefits under JWO up to 31 December 2016, following which they would be
automatically signed-up for the JNO as well. Details of the JNO are
available on ‘www.jio.com’.

Considering 80% of Jio subscribers
use up to 1 GB of data daily, while the remaining 20% use
disproportionately more data, Jio has limited the high-speed-data
quantity to 1 GB per day per user, following which the speed will be
reduced to 128 Kbps. This step has been taken to ensure that all the Jio
users get superior data experience. Attractive tariff options have been
offered for subscribers wishing to consume additional data beyond 1 GB
per day at regular speed as part of the JNO.

Jio is
introducing a completely digital recharge and billing experience.
Subscribers will have an opportunity to familiarise themselves with the
digital billing experience during the JNO so that no customer ever faces
an issue during the charging phase.

Jio said that the issue of
constraint of interconnection capacity from the incumbent operators had
plagued the company for the first few months. While there has been an
improvement in recent days following the intervention of the Government
and TRAI, Jio’s subscribers have not been able to enjoy the benefits of
free HD quality voice services so far, and thus the JNO would provide an
opportunity to all the subscribers to experience seamless Jio
services. Jio Money and Jio Money Merchant Solution

Jio is
committed to support the growth of a digitally-enabled, optimal-cash
economy in India. One of the key drivers for adoption of Digital Money
and Cashless way of living is people’s ability to convert physical Cash
into Digital Cash and vice-versa. In order to make this possible,
JioMoney is rapidly expanding its reach to millions of touch points
where Aadhar based microATMs will be deployed.

Jio also
announced the launch of the Jio Money Merchant Solution. This solution
provides access to Jio’s suite of services, including customised
offerings such as digital money, for a very important segment of the
Indian economy. This will enable digital transactions of all types,
whether they be at Mandis, small shops, restaurants, Railway ticket
counters, for Bus and mass transit and even for person-to-person money
transfers. Jio believes that this offering will contribute significantly
in realising the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s vision of transitioning to a
cashless economy.
